MP Has Principles - Shock Horror

David Davies threw a stun grenade into parliament as he announced his resignation over the 42-day detention bill and his intention to fight a by-election over the government's assault on civil liberties. At the moment he might have to face Kelvin Mckenzie, the ex-editor of the SUN, if nuLabor refuse to fight the by-election.
David Davies is obviously a deeply principled and couragous man. This won't be just a a by-election, it will reverberate around the country. Especially if the Lords roast the bill as they have threatened to do. Though now I have the unsavoury image of the lords roasting something in the chamber, I may have to go to lie down.
